        People can be reeducated and rehabilitated, I have no issue with USSR doing that. What I have a problem with is keeping the ideology alive which is what the US intentionally and methodically did after the war https://www.counterpunch.org/2020/10/16/the-u-s-did-not-defeat-fascism-in-wwii-it-discretely-internationalized-it/

            Everybody who was actively involved in committing war crimes was prosecuted in harshest terms possible by USSR. This has been extensively documented, so not sure what you’re going on about here.

            If you are trying to equivocate the USSR and the US then you’re carrying water for fascists

                No critisizing is fine - it’s equivocating that is the problem

                And you are equivocating the two. The US is the imperialist hegemon that actively sides and engages with fascists to this day. The USSR was a bulwark against capitalist hegemony for decades. They aren’t the same and you are trying to say there’s no difference. That’s what i call caring water for fascists

                bruh amerikkka and the br**ish put nazi officers directly responsible for the genocide in the highest positions of power withing their country and within nato and kept them in power in nazi germany, the USSR hung them. The USSR also didnt welcome the scientits responsible for the genocide while the western countries did, it is ok to think that even that was too much but it is lunacy to say that what they did is even close being similar to what the western countries did.
